I have an IPS openmotif package available that installs to "/opt/SMM/openmotif" and a IPS package of the current CDE snapshot that uses that installed version of openmotif.
Did you have the Oracle version of "pkg:/library/motif" installed? There are a lot of files in that package that conflict with an installed CDE and likely an installed version of openmotif to "/usr". # pkg install -nv pkg://solaris/library/motif 2>&1 | grep "The following packages all deliver file actions" | wc -l 49 The above 49 conflicts are between pkg://solaris/library/motif@0.5.11,5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0:20130916T152658Z pkg://development/desktop/cde@2.2.2,5.11:20141116T133001Z <-- This is my CDE package The following packages have potential conflicting files # pkg search -r -p /usr/dt PACKAGE PUBLISHER pkg:/desktop/cde@2.2.2 development pkg:/cde/calendar-manager-server@0.5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0 solaris pkg:/cde/cde-runtime@0.5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0 solaris pkg:/cde/cde-utilities@0.5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0 solaris pkg:/cde/help-viewer@0.5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0 solaris pkg:/driver/graphics/nvidia@0.331.38.0-0.175.2.0.0.35.0 solaris pkg:/gnome/trusted/login-label-selector@0.6.5-0.175.2.0.0.41.0 solaris pkg:/gnome/trusted/xagent@0.6.8-0.175.2.0.0.42.0 solaris pkg:/library/motif@0.5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0 solaris pkg:/library/tooltalk@0.5.11-0.175.2.0.0.23.0 solaris I have the following installed and there are no conflicts # pkg search -l -p /usr/dt OR openmotif PACKAGE PUBLISHER pkg:/desktop/cde@2.2.2 pkg:/development/openmotif@2.3.4 pkg:/driver/graphics/nvidia@0.331.38.0-0.175.2.0.0.35.0 Regards Murray On 20/11/2014 12:23, Richard L.
